RE: My Civic has been Stolen!!!!
ORIGINAL: 94EXSedan
Well, they found it last night! The good news is that it is not completely stripped or wrecked. They found it about 4 miles from where it was stolen and it was sitting on the rotors. The only thing they got away with was the wheels/tires, intake and the stereo system.
I am actually surprised they didn't take the suspension or anything else. The cop said they must have liked my wheels. That's pretty weak!! Stealing a car just for the wheels. Oh well at least I got it back. They used a "jiggle key" to get in. I have never heard of that but I guess it is a Honda key filed down that they just put in the lock and push it in and out really quick and they can be in your car in 3-4 seconds. It also works on the ignition.

My car is almost back and running again! I had the stereo put in today as well as the new wheels and tires. I decided on the 16" Enkei GF1's with 205/40/16 Nitto NeoGen VR's. I have to say they look pretty good. The only thing I am missing is the intake. I was supposed to get it today but FedEx never made it. I hope I don't have to wait until Tuesday. It feels good to have my car back. I will also be installing a kill switch tomorrow.

if you care enough about your carthen next time you start putting money into it you can pay more a month for your insurance. i pay 20 more a month and it covers $5000 on top of what my car is worth. so if anyone ever steals my si, i will get what its worth plus $5000 smart thing to do.
